So many thoughts
So many thoughts are going through my head, we just returned from a 2 week trip to Europe! We visited my friend Hania in France, Alex in Germany and went for K's doctor and physio appointments in Milan, we had time for tours too this trip! Then I came down sick. Not fun. I managed to tick off 6 more 101 list items this trip! Details to follow. I'm ( Read more... ) -
miss me?
I haven't been on here in a while, partly because our family took a 24 day, almost 10,000 km trip and just got back a week ago. The good news is that I finished a fairly large (to me) project on the trip! It's a Christmas project, so I'm well and truely ahead for the year! Let's see, what else has been going on... I read 4 & 1/2 novels on the ( Read more... ) -
more done!
I did it! I have finished 3 more small Christmas cross-stitch projects! That brings my total to 8 for the month. My goal is 10, so I'm well on the way to reaching that goal. November is basically out though, except for a little bit of time waiting for the kids to finish sports. Just over 2 hours til November, and I will be starting on my Novel ( Read more... ) -
works in progress
I had hoped to finish another Christmas cross-stitch today... but I didn't think to stitch the white (on white) during daylight hours when I had good light. Now it will have to wait til tomorrow.

I am a bit sad that a dear friend of mine has now moved overseas... happy for her, she's got some exciting adventures ahead of her! But sad that we never met face to ( Read more... ) -

Well well well, I can't remember when I started on these ornaments... maybe a week ago? I now have 5 finished! Well, the stitching part is done, I will still need to do the finishing bit. So, I'm ahead of schedule, and am now hoping I can get more than my goal of 10 done! I will wait until I reach that goal though, before I reset it. I would ( Read more... ) -
Am I there yet?
It's a lovely day... a bit hot in the top end, but I'm at work (break atm) and we have aircon, so it's not bad! I am finally part of the Cross stitch and fly lady community, although I can't get 'into' them at home for some reason. hmmmmm ( Read more... ) -
more stitching
It was a long day today, but there's something to be said for long periods of time with nothing else to do... STITCH! So, I stitched while the kids went swimming in the hot springs, I stitched again while Katie had gymnastics, and I stitched again while Justin had tennis ( Read more... )
